A 60-year-old Guadalupe man was killed and a 46-year-old Arroyo Grande woman was injured in a traffic accident in Orcutt Sunday afternoon.

According to the California Highway Patrol, the Guadalupe resident was traveling northbound on Highway 101 “at a high rate of speed” when he tried to take the Clark Avenue exit around 5:30 p.m. The man lost control of his 1998 Infinity, veered off the offramp and continued up a dirt embankment toward Clark Avenue.
